VALENCIA.- The Institut Valencià d’Art Modern has received a lot of artworks over the last 25 years. Out of the 10 643 works comprising the IVAM’s collection, 61 % are donations made by collectors, artists and heirs who have considered that the IVAM is the perfect museum to preserve and disseminate their creations.
